Six Million or so Jewish people were killed, Lord knows how many had injuries or health problems in surviving or escaping. All of this is taken at face value. It is interesting that the Holocaust descendants rarely go into personal angles- to put a human face on this suffering. Anne Frank is a notable exception. One does not find Omnibus volumes in a positive note- say- Holocaust survivors of World War II, but nearly every other aspect of the war is treated in such a fashion, to get different points of view. One guess ( and you don"t find any roll calls or honor rolls in public places- unlike conventional casualties of wars) is that the stories would somewhat conflict and weaken the argument- Box the compass before setting the course! They will talk evasively and come up with odd but feasible counterarguments- like ( there is a huge crowd at Journal square, how many people could you identify?) and a tendency is there to get vague on the details- simply ( my whole family was deported). They agree on the big figures, but tend to break down ( not psychologically) on finer points.

Why is there Holocaust denial?

While the key reasons for Holocaust denial are varied, the three main reasons given stem from (1) a desire to rehabilitate the Nazis, (2) antisemitism, or (3) the belief that facts surrounding the Holocaust have been fabricated or drastically exaggerated.Also, to be clear, Holocaust denial is a politically-motivated viewpoint; it is not an academic historical subject. That is, Holocaust denial is not a valid "alternate" interpretation of history, and has no place in historical studies. Historians reject the "study" of Holocaust denial as invalid (in the same way that they reject the "study" of dinosaurs living side-by-side with humans, in that neither has any basis in fact).Holocaust denial is rooted in certain beliefs which are political in nature - that is, Holocaust denial is a socio-political phenomena, and as such part of sociology and political science, NOT history. The distinction is important, as history deals with the interpretation of established factual events, while sociology and political science deal with human ideas and psychology of large groups, and are not concerned with the veracity of those idea's underlying assumptions.
